最亲爱的:收到这封邮件时,您也许会很惊讶,它也许侵犯了您的个人生活。但如今, 这是我与您沟通的唯一方式。去年十二月,我父亲神秘去世。我怀着无比谦卑的心情, 恳求您与我合作, 协助我继承父亲的遗产并进行投资。根据我们的文化,男人死亡时如无男性子嗣, 兄弟将分得其财产,而妻子和女儿将一无所有。我的情况正是如此, 因为我是父亲唯一的女儿。我未满一岁时就失去了母亲,尽管亲朋好友百般劝告, 父亲执意拒绝再娶。因为父亲把母亲的去世全部归咎于自己, 认为自己只一心忙于生意,疏于关心家庭事务。 Darling: You may be surprised when you receive this email, which may be a violation of your personal life. But now, this is the only way I can communicate with you. Last December, my father died mysteriously. With great humility, I beg you to work with me to help me inherit my father’s legacy and invest. According to our culture, a man dies without male heirs, a brother divides his property, and his wife and daughter have nothing. My situation is the case, because I am the only daughter of his father. When I was less than one year old, I lost my mother, despite all my friends and family advised, my father insisted on refusing to marry again. Because his father all blamed himself on his mother’s death, he thought he was only busy with business and neglected to care for family affairs.
